Podcasts about Hypothyroidism

Ruth is learning, writing, and teaching about thyroid disease in lots of different places, so IHACW is coming along for the ride. Hypothyroidism: the thyroid gland doesn't produce enough of the right hormones to stimulate healthy metabolism—a person has a hard time turning fuel (that's oxygen and food) into energy. The result: lethargy, weight gain, sluggish digestion, and lots, lots more. Does this describe any of your clients? But treating endocrine diseases is a tricky business. In this episode Ruth interviews a friend who had some success, but it is an ongoing battle. Resources: Allen, E. and Fingeret, A. (2025) "Anatomy, Head and Neck, Thyroid," in StatPearls.

Have you been told that your thyroid — or hypothyroidism — is the reason you're dealing with fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, dry skin, constipation, bloating, or digestive issues that seem to keep piling up?Have you started thyroid medication or supplements, only to feel maybe a little better… but still not like yourself?Or maybe your doctor is telling you that your labs are “normal,” but you're still suspicious thyroid might have something to do with it — and you want to know how you can support your thyroid safely to boost your energy, digestion, and metabolism? If any of that sounds familiar, then this episode is for you. Today we're continuing the Real Root Cause Series, where I'm taking conditions that are commonly labeled as root causes — and breaking down to you what their REAL root causes are. This is super powerful because understanding a fake vs. real root cause is the difference between healing from your symptoms... or not. Today's topic is: thyroid health — specifically hypothyroidism. This episode might ruffle some feathers, because I'm going to make the case that hypothyroidism itself is not a true root cause. That doesn't mean your symptoms aren't real. And it definitely doesn't mean your labs don't matter. But it doesmean that something else is driving why your thyroid hormones aren't working the way they should. In this episode, I'm walking you through:Why thyroid medication alone often doesn't fully resolve symptomsHow you can have “normal” labs and still have hypothyroid symptomsHow thyroid hormones are actually made, converted, and used in the bodyWhat this has to do with finding (and testing for) the real root causes to thyroid imbalanceWhat gut health has to do with thyroid healthAnd what needs to be addressed underneath your thyroid for your symptoms to truly improve If you're ready to understand your thyroid better than you ever have, plus have the tools you need to support your thyroid (and whole body health) beyond medication - then this episode is for you.

FREE Hashimoto's and Thyroid Type Training and Support CallThursday Jan 29 ,2026 @ 8:30pm EasternRegister here: https://innatopiler.com/zoomcall/Cooking with Hashimoto's often becomes the hardest place to stay consistent, not because you do not know what foods are supportive, but because figuring out how to cook in real life takes energy, planning, and the right setup.In this conversation Inna and Hypothyroid Chef Ginny Mahar talk about how to actually cook in a way that supports your body without turning food into another source of stress. You will see how anti inflammatory eating looks in real life, why personalization matters, and how to think about meal prep, leftovers, freezing, and cooking methods in a way that preserves energy instead of draining it.The episode also goes beyond food and into the kitchen itself, from pots and pans to utensils, cutting boards, and food storage. If cooking with Hashimoto's has felt overwhelming or unrealistic, this conversation will help it feel simpler, calmer, and more doable.For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/cook-hashimotos-hypothyroid-chef-ginny-mahar/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Thyroid Autoimmunity at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcall FREE Hashimoto's and Thyroid Type Training and Support CallThursday Jan 29 ,2026 @ 8:30pm EasternRegister here: https://innatopiler.com/zoomcall/

Ever wondered if the way we've been taught to eat actually supports your thyroid? In this episode, we reimagine what a thyroid-friendly diet looks like in 2026. With the USDA's newly released Real Food Pyramid shaking up decades of nutrition advice and Dr. Andrew Weil's Anti-Inflammatory Pyramid gaining traction, where do people with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's fit in?Join us as we break down:

Brain fog that won't lift. Crushing fatigue. Mood changes, anxiety, headaches, or memory slips that make you feel like you're not quite yourself anymore. What if these symptoms aren't random — and aren't “all in your head” — but are signals from your thyroid to your brain?In this eye-opening episode of the Paloma podcast, we dive deep into the powerful and often overlooked connection between hypothyroidism and the central nervous system. Learn how thyroid hormones act like chemical messengers for your brain, why low levels can slow nerve signaling, and how untreated or under-treated hypothyroidism may affect cognition, emotions, and neurological function. We also unpack the science behind symptoms many patients struggle to get validated — from brain fog and depression to migraines and coordination issues — and explain why standard thyroid labs don't always tell the whole story.If you've ever felt dismissed, confused, or frustrated by lingering neurological symptoms, this episode brings clarity, validation, and a path forward. 

Weight loss with Hashimoto's often feels harder than it should, even when you're doing all the things. This episode explores why that frustration is so common and why most weight loss advice doesn't fully apply to a Hashimoto's body.In this conversation, Inna explains how weight loss with Hashimoto's follows a different set of rules and why understanding that difference changes how you approach food, metabolism, and progress.If weight loss has felt confusing, inconsistent, or resistant, this episode will help you see it through a very different lens.And if you want a clear step by step process so you can implement everything the right way and lose weight with Hashimoto's, please check out the 10 Day Hashimoto's Weight Loss Transformation at https://innatopiler.com/jumpstart/

So many people with Hashimoto's carry emotional patterns they don't even realize are affecting their thyroid. Today we take a closer look at the invisible habits we learn early in life, the ones that quietly shape how safe we feel being ourselves.Sometimes you minimize what hurt you. Sometimes you feel responsible for other people's reactions. Sometimes you stop trusting your own knowing, even when your body is nudging you in the right direction. These patterns may seem emotional on the surface, but they create real physiological stress, and your thyroid feels every bit of it.This episode explores why these habits form, how they show up in everyday situations, and why the thyroid is uniquely sensitive to self-expression, boundaries, and inner trust. You will see how simple shifts in awareness can help your body feel safer, calmer, and more supported from the inside out.If you have ever felt like you disappear inside your own life, or like your voice gets quieter when you need it most, this conversation will help you reconnect to yourself in a deeper way. Your thyroid responds to that connection, and you may be surprised how much changes when you begin to honor what you truly feel.Healing is not only biochemical, it  is also emotional, energetic, and rooted in how you relate to yourself every day. For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/thyroid-labs-hashimotos/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Thyroid Autoimmunity at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcall

What if your teen's painful periods, anxiety, or constant worry are early red flags for Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism? In this eye-opening episode of the Health with Hashimoto's podcast, host Esther Yunkin sits down with quadruple board-certified physician Dr. David Bilstrom to explore how hormone imbalances like estrogen dominance can show up in teenagers—long before thyroid issues are diagnosed. Dr. Bilstrom shares that these “rev without calm” patterns (think bad cramps, heavy flows, panic attacks, and racing thoughts) are often tied to estrogen dominance, gut disruption, and hidden infections. The good news? Addressing them early can reverse or prevent Hashimoto's, hypothyroidism, and even other autoimmune conditions for this generation and beyond. You'll walk away with hope and practical insights, including why Hashimoto's in teenagers is rising and how simple steps can protect future health. 3 Key Takeaways You'll Learn: How hormonal menstrual issues in teens signal estrogen dominance—the hidden driver behind 80% of autoimmune diseases like Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism. The gut-infection-hormone connection and why fixing leaky gut and clearing infections can calm symptoms fast and prevent chronic illness. Why early intervention (ideally by age 19) can change the trajectory for teenagers with hypothyroidism & Hashimoto's—and even pass on better health to future generations.

Gallbladder pain is often blamed on diet, gallstones, or digestive issues… but for many people with thyroid conditions, the link runs deeper. In this episode, we explore how Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism may contribute to gallbladder dysfunction, why symptoms are often misattributed, and what you can do to get answers.In this episode you'll learn:How low thyroid function can impact bile production, digestion, and gallbladder health — and why so many patients are caught in a cycle of pain and frustration.The overlapping symptoms that get overlooked, including bloating, upper abdominal discomfort, nausea, and fatigue — and why they may be mistaken for “just digestive issues.”The role of inflammation, autoimmune triggers, and hormonal changes in gallbladder function for people with Hashimoto's.How thyroid medication, diet, and gut support can influence gallbladder health and improve treatment outcomes.Practical strategies to support digestion, reduce inflammation, and work with your healthcare provider to identify hidden contributors.What research tells us — and what remains unknown — about the thyroid-gallbladder connection.If you've experienced persistent digestive pain, bloating, or fatigue despite managing your thyroid, or if you've ever wondered why gallbladder issues seem harder to resolve with Hashimoto's, this episode sheds light on a connection few people talk about.

In this rare and powerful interview, I sit down with Dr. Denis Wilson, the creator of Wilson's Temperature Syndrome, for his first podcast appearance in years. Can you say AMAZING?! We dive into the origin of Wilson's Temperature Syndrome, what it actually is, and how it differs from classic hypothyroidism. Dr. Wilson explains why body temperature is one of the most accurate reflections of your metabolism! And why metabolism is the true core function of the thyroid. You'll learn why you can't measure metabolism on a blood test, why normal thyroid labs don't always mean you're well, and how doctors may completely overlook conversion issues, low T3 function, and cellular-level hormone activity. We also explore: Why low body temperature is a red flag for metabolic slowdown How to increase temperature with T3 and how weaning off can still leave symptoms resolved How the deiodinase enzymes work to control T4-to-T3 conversion Why so many people remain symptomatic even on thyroid medication The cellular reasons behind fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, and low mood How stress is one of the biggest drivers of thyroid dysfunction The shocking impact that just one night of poor sleep can have on metabolism And lots more! This episode is essential for anyone who has low thyroid symptoms but “normal” labs, struggles with chronic fatigue or low temperatures, or wants a deeper understanding of metabolism from the physician who pioneered this field. Denis Wilson, MD, described Wilson ‘s Temperature Syndrome in 1988 after observing people with symptoms of low thyroid and low body temperature, yet who had normal blood tests. He found that by normalizing their temperatures with T3 (without T4) their symptoms often remained improved even after the treatment was discontinued. As a result of his findings, Dr. Wilson developed the WT3 protocol for Wilson's Temperature Syndrome (now standard of care) and originated sustained release T3. He was the first doctor to use sustained-release T3. Find out more about Dr Wilson here; Youtube - ‪@RestorativeMedicine‬ Website - https://wilsonssyndrome.com/

In the ED, we regularly care for sick patients presenting acutely with abnormal vital signs, altered mental status, and end organ dysfunction. Oftentimes, the culprit ends up being sepsis, or overdose, or organ failure. But it is important that we consider rarer endocrine presentations like decompensated hypothyroidism. In this Part 1 of this two-part podcast with Dr George Willis and Dr Alyssa Louis, we answer questions like: Why is the term myxedema coma a misnomer and should be abandoned? How can we differentiate between sepsis or environmental hypothermia or toxidrome from decompensated hypothyroidism at the bedside? When is it appropriate to order a TSH, a T4 and T3? What are the most important life-threatening triggers that need to be addressed in patients with decompensated hypothyroidism? Why is it important to test for cortisol levels and consider stress-dose steroids in all patients with decompensated hypothyroidism? Why is endotracheal intubation particularly dangerous in decompensated hypothyroidsm? What is the best way to manage hypothermia? Why is the order of medications for treatment of decompensated hypothyroidism so important? and many more...

Hypothyroidism in seniors is common — but frequently underdiagnosed, undertreated, or misunderstood. Aging bodies metabolize medications differently, symptoms can mimic other conditions, and “normal ranges” aren't always normal for older adults. In this episode, we dive into how thyroid care evolves in life's later chapters, and you'll learn:Why hypothyroidism rates increase with age — and which symptoms aren't “just getting older.”The difference between normal aging and thyroid-driven cognitive decline, depression, or fatigue.Why seniors may need different testing, dosing, and follow-up — especially with heart conditions or bone health in the picture.How untreated hypothyroidism impacts memory, falls, cholesterol, and independence.Medication tips for seniors, including absorption issues, polypharmacy, and brands vs generics.How to advocate — respectfully and effectively — for care beyond a TSH test.Whether you're managing your thyroid after 60, caring for a parent, or wondering if symptoms are being overlooked — this episode helps you navigate thyroid health with confidence.

There is always a deeper story behind emotional eating, and in this episode Inna and guest Lisa Schlosberg open up the layers most people never connect to food. They explore the moments when you eat without hunger, the childhood patterns that shaped your sense of safety, and the reasons your body may turn to food even when your mind insists you are “fine.” What begins as a conversation about eating quickly becomes a conversation about emotional wiring, nervous system responses, and the parts of you that learned to cope long before you had words for it.Lisa shares her own experience of losing 150 pounds and discovering that the harder work had nothing to do with calories or willpower. It was learning how to feel feelings she spent years avoiding. It was realizing food had been her protection, her comfort, and her armor. Together, she and Inna talk about why emotional hunger feels real, why you can't solve an emotional problem with a physical solution, and how self compassion and internal safety begin to shift lifelong patterns around eating.They also explore the small, often unnoticed triggers that shape your relationship with food. Clean plate conditioning. Scarcity wiring. Eating in front of screens. The need for stimulation. The pull toward comfort when you are overwhelmed. The instinct to stay “strong” at the cost of your own emotional expression. And for many with Hashimoto's, the way growing up without validation creates a lifelong habit of seeking comfort and reassurance outside of yourself.This episode is a grounded, deeply human look at emotional eating, inner safety, and the process of gently rewriting the relationship you have with food. It brings together mind, body, and emotion in a way that will help you understand yourself on an entirely new level.For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/eating-not-hungry-relationship-food-lisa-schlosberg/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Thyroid Autoimmunity at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcall

Ever feel like you just can't get enough air, even when your oxygen levels are normal? For many people with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's, shortness of breath and “air hunger” are confusing — often dismissed as anxiety, asthma, or “nothing to worry about.” In this episode, we unpack the lesser-known thyroid connection behind breathing difficulties.You'll learn:What air hunger actually is — and why it can feel like breathlessness without a measurable lung problem.How hypothyroidism slows respiratory muscle function — including the diaphragm.The surprising link between low thyroid levels and anxiety-like symptoms such as chest pressure, panic sensations, and air hunger.When shortness of breath means “thyroid,” not just “stress.”Red flags to discuss with your clinician, especially if symptoms worsen around medication timing, dosage shifts, or flare-ups.Simple strategies that can help — from improving breathing mechanics to ruling out other causes.If you've ever wondered, “Why does breathing feel harder when everything looks normal on paper?” — this episode gives you clarity, validation, and actionable steps.

Hypothyroidism And The New FDA Ruling The thyroid gland plays a vital role in regulating key body functions, but when it's dysregulated, the typical treatment involves synthetic T4 and T3. A small number of patients still use desiccated thyroid extract derived from animals, but the FDA plans to phase it out due to safety and dosing concerns. Our experts explain why patients are still using DTE and why they're being transitioned to other options. Saving A Life: How To Reverse An Overdose Many people know what to do in emergencies like fires or animal encounters, but far fewer understand how to respond to an opioid overdose. A nonprofit is teaching the public to recognize key signs of an overdose and use tools like naloxone and fentanyl test strips to save lives. As education and access expand, the goal is to make harm reduction strategies as familiar as any other life-saving precaution.

Fasting is everywhere these days, but most traditional fasting approaches are too harsh when you have Hashimoto's. Long stretches without food can feel destabilizing, draining, and completely unrealistic for a thyroid that is already under stress. However there is a different approach called fasting mimicking that creates the deeper cellular benefits of fasting while you are still eating real food. Fasting mimicking has been heavily researched for decades and is designed to activate the same fasting pathways that support things like metabolism, energy, longevity, and overall cellular renewal. Instead of pushing the body into stress, it uses precise nutrients that keep the fasting response going while still providing nourishment, which makes it far more compatible with the needs of someone living with Hashimoto's. It also offers an approachable way to support weight, inflammation, and metabolic health without cutting calories to extremes or spiking cortisol.This is the kind of information that changes how you think about fasting altogether and incredibly relevant if regular fasting has ever made you feel worse instead of better. This episode is a must listen, and if you want to try fasting mimicking for yourself, you can do that here and please use code "FASTING" for 20% OFF!For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/203-fasting-thyroid-hashimotos-renee-fitton/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Thyroid Autoimmunity at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training atInnaTopiler.com/zoomcall

Fascia might be the most important system you've never heard of. This episode unpacks how this stretchy, sensory, hormone-responsive web inside your body shapes everything from flexibility and pain to thyroid symptoms, menopause changes, gut function, and weight loss.We dive into why stiff, dehydrated, or inflamed fascia can mimic hypothyroidism, intensify perimenopause and menopause symptoms, stall your metabolism, and magnify gut issues like bloating, constipation, and systemic inflammation.In this episode, you'll learn:What fascia actually is and why it's far more than “connective tissue”How thyroid conditions like Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism change fascia, leading to stiffness, pain, and slow healingHow estrogen loss in perimenopause and menopause affects fascia hydration and elasticity, and why that matters for mobility and weight gainThe surprising link between fascia and gut health, including lymphatic flow, inflammation, and IBS-like symptomsHow fascia influences metabolic function and why tight fascia can make weight loss harderThe most effective ways to support and heal fascia—from movement and manual therapies to nutrition, hydration, supplements, and stress reduction

Fatigue in midlife isn't just about needing more sleep — it's often a sign that something deeper is out of balance. In this episode, Tara shares her clinical approach to fatigue, including how hormones, minerals, iron status, thyroid function, inflammation, gut health, and stress all impact your energy. She explains why basic labs don't always tell the full story and what to look for when fatigue doesn't improve with rest or supplements alone. You'll walk away with a clearer understanding of why you feel tired and what steps actually move the needle — plus how personalized testing and guidance can help you get your energy back for good.   Here's what you'll discover in this episode: 1. Why "just getting older" isn't a reason to accept low energy Tara Thorne shares her refreshing perspective on why we shouldn't expect our bodies to bounce back like they did in our twenties, and how you can actually regain your spark at any age. 2. The importance of digging into your blood work Learn what labs to ask for (and why most doctors miss critical markers)—including a full-thyroid panel, specific immune markers, iron panels, and even markers for viral and bacterial infections. 3. How mineral imbalances could be sabotaging your energy Tara Thorne walks through the magic of HTMA tests and why simply popping magnesium or iron might not help (and could even make things worse!). 4. The gut-fatigue connection Surprise! You might not have GI symptoms and still have serious gut-driven exhaustion. Tara Thorne unpacks how gut health, inflammation, and "leaky gut" can zap your vitality. 5. The critical (but often overlooked) role of hormones and stress From optimizing your hormones with bioidentical HRT to managing stress and dialing in quality sleep, you'll get actionable advice to support your energy on every level.   Other episodes of interest: EPS 114: Thyroid health in midlife: post-illness autoimmunity/hypothyroidism, why TSH will rise with iodine & this is OK, progesterone & thyroid health & more!

Stress and Holiday Hypothyroidism | How Stress Lowers T3 and Raises rT3 | Dr. Eric Balcavage – Thyroid Shorts Ep. 19 The holidays are supposed to be joyful — but for many with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's, they trigger fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, and anxiety. In this episode, Dr. Eric Balcavage, creator of the Adaptive Thyroid Model™, explains how stress physiology, poor sleep, and inflammation can turn down your thyroid hormone activity — even when your blood tests look "normal." Learn why holiday stress, late nights, sugar spikes, alcohol, and over-training push your body into a reverse T3 (rT3) dominant state — what Dr. Balcavage calls Holiday Hypothyroidism — and how to fix it naturally. In this episode, you'll learn: ✅ What reverse T3 is — and how it shuts down active T3 inside your cells ✅ How cortisol, IL-6, and TNF-α change deiodinase enzyme activity (DIO1/2 ↓, DIO3 ↑) ✅ Why your thyroid "slows down" under stress — it's protection, not failure ✅ The 5-Day rT3 Reset — a practical plan for restoring thyroid balance ✅ How to lower inflammation, improve sleep, and support bile flow during the holidays

In this episode, we dive deep into the often overlooked intersections between hormonal health and mood. We'll explore how the hormonal roller-coaster of perimenopause can trigger depression; how an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) can silently undermine your mental health, cognition and memory; and how winter's shorter days and low light can amplify the risk of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) — especially when thyroid issues are in the mix.You'll learn:Why women in their 40s-50s may face a 40 % higher risk of depression during perimenopause — and how those symptoms may overlap with thyroid dysfunction. How hypothyroidism mimics and worsens depression, anxiety, brain-fog and fatigue — and why it often goes undiagnosed. The link between thyroid-autoimmune inflammation, structural brain changes and cognitive/mood symptoms in Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism. Practical strategies to navigate these overlapping conditions: combining thyroid screening, lifestyle tweaks (sleep, nutrition, light exposure), therapy/CBT, and when medical hormone-or thyroid-treatment becomes essential.How to spot when “just feeling off” is more than stress: the red flags that signal mood symptoms need a hormonal check.Whether you're entering perimenopause, suspect a thyroid condition or are managing seasonal mood dips — this episode will help you connect the dots and equip you with evidence-based tools to reclaim your mood and hormonal balance.

If you've ever wondered whether your own Hashimoto's could be connected to what's going on with your child's health, this conversation will open your eyes.In this episode, Inna sits down with Dr. Nancy O'Hara,  a leading expert in PANS and PANDAS (and also her son Jake's pediatrician)  to talk about something most parents never hear about: how autoimmune thyroid disease in moms can raise the risk of PANS/PANDAS, and other neuroimmune conditions in kids.They share what the research shows, how this link develops, how to find it and most importantly what families can do to support these conditions.Inna also opens up about her own journey as a Hashimoto's mom raising a child with special needs and the twist that helped her discover her son had PANS/PANDAS, plus the emotions, the questions, and the relief that comes from finally understanding the bigger picture.It's an honest, eye-opening episode for every Hashimoto's parent needs to hear to know what to look for, what to do and to feel less alone in the process.For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/hashimotos-pans-pandas-autoimmune-parent-dr-nancy-ohara/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Thyroid Autoimmunity at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcall

What if everything you thought you knew about testosterone therapy was wrong? In this episode, I sit down with Shalin Shah, CEO of Marius Pharmaceuticals, to explore a groundbreaking oral testosterone therapy that's changing the way we think about hormones. For decades, we've been told that oral testosterone is dangerous, hard on the liver, risky for the heart, and only meant for men. But what if there's a safer, more effective option that benefits both men and women, protects long-term health, and actually mimics the body's natural rhythm? We dig into the myths that have held testosterone back, why it's been unfairly stigmatized, and how this new therapy could reshape the future of hormone replacement. If you've ever struggled with low energy, brain fog, weight gain, or lack of motivation (or if you've wondered why so many doctors still hesitate to prescribe testosterone) this conversation will open your eyes to what's possible.

Examining the claim that cabbage family vegetables are bad for the thyroid; Walmart announces sweeping move to reformulate its products without synthetic dyes, sketchy additives; Under Congressional questioning, Google admits to censoring contrary narratives on YouTube during Covid; Children garner psychological benefits from grandparent time; J&J fined nearly $1 billion in landmark talc baby powder lawsuit; Humans are among the few animals who can't make their own vitamin C—why that may be a good thing.

Have you ever been told to test your thyroid levels a few hours after taking your medication? What if I told you that one small timing mistake could completely throw off your results—and lead to the wrong treatment plan? In this episode, I'm breaking down one of the most common (and costly) thyroid testing mistakes: drawing your labs at the wrong time. I explain why testing “at the peak” doesn't make sense scientifically, how it can create false high readings, and what actually happens in your body when you take T3 or NDT medication. You'll hear real examples from my own experiments and patients so you can finally understand what those lab numbers really mean—and when you should be testing for an accurate picture of your thyroid health. If you've been told your labs look “fine” but you still feel tired, foggy, or stuck with symptoms, this episode will make it all click. I'll teach you the timing strategy that can completely change how your medication is adjusted and how you feel every day. Don't miss it!

This podcast is sponsored by YARAL Pharma.  In this episode, we are focusing on the management of hypothyroidism -- a treatable, but not curable condition – and will explore unique challenges for patients with hypothyroidism in long-term care – from tolerability and formulation considerations to consistent dosing and patient needs. Dr. Tamara Ruggles is not affiliated with YARAL Pharma. All views and opinions regarding hypothyroidism are solely her own and are not attributable to YARAL or the Pharmacy Podcast Network. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION for levothyroxine sodium capsules INDICATION AND USAGE Levothyroxine sodium capsules are L-thyroxine (T4) indicated for adults and pediatric patients 6 years and older with: Hypothyroidism - As replacement therapy in primary (thyroidal), secondary (pituitary), and tertiary (hypothalamic) congenital or acquired hypothyroidism Pituitary Thyrotropin (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone, TSH) Suppression - As an adjunct to surgery and radioiodine therapy in the management of thyrotropin-dependent well differentiated thyroid cancer Limitations of Use: Levothyroxine sodium capsules are not indicated for suppression of benign thyroid nodules and nontoxic diffuse goiter in iodine-sufficient patients as there are no clinical benefits and overtreatment with Levothyroxine sodium capsules may induce hyperthyroidism. Levothyroxine sodium capsules are not indicated for treatment of transient hypothyroidism during the recovery phase of subacute thyroiditis WARNING: NOT FOR THE TREATMENT OF OBESITY OR FOR WEIGHT LOSS Thyroid hormones, including levothyroxine sodium capsules, either alone or with other therapeutic agents, should not be used for the treatment of obesity or for weight loss. In euthyroid patients, doses within the range of daily hormonal requirements are ineffective for weight reduction. Larger doses may produce serious or even life-threatening manifestations of toxicity, particularly when given in association with sympathomimetic amines such as those used for their anorectic effects. Contraindications Uncorrected adrenal insufficiency Warnings and Precautions Cardiac adverse reactions in the elderly and in patients with underlying cardiovascular disease: Initiate Levothyroxine sodium capsules at less than the full replacement dose because of the increased risk of cardiac adverse reactions, including atrial fibrillation Myxedema coma: Do not use oral thyroid hormone drug products to treat myxedema coma Acute adrenal crisis in patients with concomitant adrenal insufficiency: Treat with replacement glucocorticoids prior to initiation of levothyroxine sodium capsules treatment Prevention of hyperthyroidism or incomplete treatment of hypothyroidism: Proper dose titration and careful monitoring is critical to prevent the persistence of hypothyroidism or the development of hyperthyroidism Worsening of diabetic control: Therapy in patients with diabetes mellitus may worsen glycemic control and result in increased antidiabetic agent or insulin requirements. Carefully monitor glycemic control after starting, changing, or discontinuing thyroid hormone therapy Decreased bone mineral density associated with thyroid hormone over-replacement: Over-replacement can increase bone reabsorption and decrease bone mineral density. Give the lowest effective dose Adverse Reactions Common adverse reactions with levothyroxine therapy are primarily those of hyperthyroidism due to therapeutic overdosage. They include the following: General: fatigue, increased appetite, weight loss, heat intolerance, fever, excessive sweating Central Nervous System: headache, hyperactivity, nervousness, anxiety, irritability, emotional ability, insomnia Musculoskeletal: tremors, muscle weakness Cardiovascular: palpitations, tachycardia, arrythmias, increased pulse and blood pressure, heart failure, angina, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest Respiratory: dyspnea Gastrointestinal (GI): diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, elevations in liver function tests Dermatologic: hair loss, flushing Endocrine: decreased bone mineral density Reproductive: menstrual irregularities, impaired fertility Adverse Reactions in Children Pseudotumor cerebri and slipped capital femoral epiphysis have been reported in children receiving levothyroxine therapy. Overtreatment may result in craniosynostosis in infants and premature closure of the epiphyses in children with resultant compromised adult height. Seizures have been reported rarely with the institution of levothyroxine therapy. Hypersensitivity Reactions Hypersensitivity reactions to inactive ingredients (in this product or other levothyroxine products) have occurred in patients treated with thyroid hormone products. These include urticaria, pruritis, skin rash, flushing, angioedema, various GI symptoms (abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea), fever, arthralgia, serum sickness and wheezing. Hypersensitivity to levothyroxine itself is not known to occur. Drug Interactions: Many drugs and some foods can exert effects on thyroid hormone pharmacokinetics (e.g., absorption, synthesis, secretion, catabolism, protein binding, and target tissue response) and may alter the therapeutic response to Levothyroxine sodium capsules. Administer at least 4 hours before or after drugs that are known to interfere with absorption. See full prescribing information for drugs that affect thyroid hormone pharmacokinetics and metabolism. To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Yaral Pharma Inc. at 1-866-218-9009, or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. For Full Prescribing Information, including Boxed Warning, go to www.yaralpharma.com/levothyroxine-pi.

What's the best thyroid medication to be on — NDT, T4, T3, or a combination? And how do you actually know what's right for your body? In this episode, I'm breaking down the nuanced art of thyroid optimization — from natural desiccated thyroid (like Armour or NP) to biosynthetic options such as Synthroid, Tirosint, and Cytomel. I explain why there's no one-size-fits-all treatment, what to consider if you have Hashimoto's, and how fillers, conversion issues, and reverse T3 can all impact how you feel. You'll learn how to spot when your thyroid meds need tweaking, why “natural” doesn't always mean better, and how to use your labs and symptoms together to guide your treatment. If you've ever felt confused about which thyroid medication is best or frustrated that your current dose isn't working, this episode will give you the clarity, confidence, and questions to bring to your next appointment — so you can finally get the right combination, in the right dose, for you.

Is muscle really the secret to aging well—and could new tech make it easier than ever to keep it? In this episode, I sit down with Alex Birks, a muscle tech innovator, to uncover the surprising truth about muscle health and why it may be the most overlooked key to longevity. We talk about the ways muscle connects to everything from hormones to cardiovascular health, and why losing it accelerates disease, injury, and aging itself. You'll also hear how Alex's own devastating injury led him to create a breakthrough wearable, now used by professional athletes and everyday people alike, that makes building and preserving muscle faster and more accessible than ever before. We go deep into the science of targeted compression training, what it actually does inside your body, and why it can mimic the effects of high-intensity workouts in just minutes. You'll learn why muscle isn't about looking bulky, but about living independently, avoiding chronic pain, and keeping your hormones and metabolism in balance. From perimenopause to post-injury recovery, from busy professionals to aging grandparents, this conversation will open your eyes to how muscle health is the missing piece you can't afford to ignore.

What if everything you thought you knew about cancer treatment wasn't the full story? In this episode, I continue my conversation with Dr. Donese Worden, digging even deeper into the world of integrative and alternative therapies for cancer. We explore the risks and rewards of different approaches, from hormones and red light therapy to ozone, ivermectin, mistletoe, and beyond. Dr. Worden shares what the research really says, how to balance intuition with science, and why cancer is far smarter than most people realize. You'll also hear about cutting-edge testing like the DataR test, which reveals how your unique cancer cells respond to specific therapies—including natural agents, repurposed drugs, and more. If you've ever wondered which alternative treatments hold promise and which ones are pure hype, this episode will open your eyes to what's possible when you pause, educate yourself, and take back control of your health journey.
